Self-assembling Peptide With Sodium Fluoride in Treating White Spot Lesionss in Primary Teeth

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: White Spot Lesion

• Registration Number: NCT05721586
• Lead Sponsor: Hams Hamed Abdelrahman

Brief Summary

Regenerative medicine-based approaches for caries treatment focus on biomimetic remineralization of initial carious lesions as a minimally invasive therapy using Self-Assembling Peptide P11-4 (CURODONTTM REPAIR) which enhances remineralization of white spot lesions (WSLs). The study aimed to assess clinically the effect of Self Assembling Peptide P11-4 (CURODONTTM REPAIR) + Fluoride varnish (DURAFLOR) versus a 5% fluoride varnish (DURAFLOR) on remineralization of enamel White Spot Lesions in primary teeth.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in DIAGNOdent readings	Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months	The measurements with the DIAGNOdent device that provides numerical values from 0 to 99

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in ICDAS II scores	Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months	Code 0 Sound tooth surface: Code 1: First visual change in enamel. Code 2: Distinct visual change in enamel visible when wet, lesion must be visible when dry.; Code 3: Localized enamel breakdown because of caries with no visible dentin or underlying shadow.; Code 4: Underlying dark shadow from dentin with or without localized enamel breakdown.; Code 5: Distinct cavity with visible dentin. Code 6: Extensive distinct cavity with visible dentin. After treatment, the evaluation will be performed as follows.
Change in Nyvad scores	Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months	Code 0: Sound - Normal enamel; Code 1: Active caries (intact surface) - Surface of enamel is whitish/yellowish opaque; Code 2: Active caries (surface discontinuity); Code 3: Active caries (cavity) - Enamel/dentin cavity easily visible with the naked eye.; Code 4: Inactive caries (intact surface) - Surface of enamel is whitish, brownish or black.; Code 5: Inactive caries (surface discontinuity) - Same criteria as score 4. Localized surface defect (microcavity) in enamel only Code 6: Inactive caries (cavity) - Enamel/dentin cavity easily visible with the naked eye; surface of cavity may be shiny and feels hard on probing with gentle pressure.
